When Max's family decided to pull him out of public school, they found homeschooling to be the perfect choice. Once 9th grade rolled around, however, the family needed help as Max's intellectual needs surpassed what his parents could deliver. Costing quite a bit less than the Gold plan, the Silver plan helped Max's family trial online school with less impact on the wallet. Max did eventually opt for the Gold plan, but the Silver plan acted as the perfect segue between homeschool and high-quality online schooling.
